    NY helped a lot in that effort when they declared the murder insurance illegal. They relied on that money to fund Lapierre's lavish lifestyle.

    Also, Putin stopped funding them.

    Unlike much of the Left's gloating over this what it appears to be is a way for the NRA to leave New York state where they are currently headquartered holding the tax and whatever money is owed bag empty and depart for Texas were the corporation will be re-founded as a Texas corporation. It would appear that this is a legal move to get out of New York cheaply and quickly. The only loser in this appears to be the state of New York...

    The Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees the right to keep and bear arms.

    Last August, New York state Attorney General Letitia James sued to dissolve the NRA, alleging senior leaders of the nonprofit group diverted millions of dollars for personal use and to buy the silence and loyalty of former employees.

    The lawsuit filed by James in a state court in Manhattan alleges NRA leaders paid for family trips to the Bahamas, private jets and expensive meals that contributed to a $64 million reduction in the NRA’s balance sheet in three years, turning a surplus into a deficit.

    The NRA responded by suing James, a Democrat, in federal court, saying she had violated the NRA’s right to free speech and seeking to block her investigation. The litigation remains pending.

    The NRA in recent decades has been one of the leading voices opposing proposed or existing gun control measures.

    The NRA’s actions will likely put the attorney general’s lawsuit on hold, and a reincorporation could strip her of the ability to seek the group’s dissolution. In her lawsuit, James had said the NRA’s incorporation as a nonprofit in New York gave her authority to dissolve it.

    It isn't the end of the NRA if you read the articles on this carefully. They're sticking it to the state of New York and moving to Texas to reincorporate there. New York gets the short end of a shitty stick by being cheated out of any and all money the state is owed by the NRA...

    "The NRA said it would restructure as a Texas nonprofit to exit what it said was a “a corrupt political and regulatory environment in New York” state, where it is currently registered."

    Texas certainly represents what America wants to be. Free to do what one wants or needs too. Within reason.
